Skywest flies to Bali from Port Hedland every Saturday. Flight leaves Perth domestic at 7.00am arrives Karratha at 9.00am. Transits Karratha at 9.30am and arrives Port Hedland at 10.00am. Departs Port Hedland at 11.00am and arrives Bali at 1.00pm. Flight planned time is 2 hours but flight time is only about 1 hour 50 minutes. So work on a 2 hour flight. Plane departs Bali on Sundays at 1.00pm and arrives Port Hedland at 3.00pm. Departs Hedland at 4.00pm and arrives Karratha at 4.30pm. Transits Karratha at 5.00pm and arrives Perth domestic at 7.00pm.The aircraft are Fokker F100 jets with a very comfortable single class seating arrangement with a seat pitch of 34 inches. The biggest seat pitch of any Australian domestic airline. A 9 day 8 night package range from $561 at the Matahari Bungalows to $741 at the Lokha to $973 at the Amasya Villas.All based on twin share and includes breakfast. Taxes of $38 apply to each package.Island Bound offer a good range of hotels and you can always make other choices of accommodation. There is however a charge for the Perth - Port Hedland leg but it is minimal per pax. Island Bound Holidays is the wholesaler or any travel agent would be able to package you. Either Island Bound or Skywest would be able to give you the cost of tickets only but like most deals it would probably be cheaper to take the cheapest package and then arrange alternate accommodation. I must declare that I am not employed by either Skywest or Island Bound Holidays and do not act as an agent on commission and receive no renumeration from them but are employed as an airport officer by the Port Hedland International Airport
